ITEM 1 - SPACE STATION EXTENSION OPENS WINDOW FOR SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERIES – JSC (REPLAY)

NASA and its international partners are looking forward to future scientific 
opportunities aboard the International Space Station now that the administration's 
fiscal year 2011 budget request calls for extending station operations to at least 2020.

Here are excerpts from an ISS Science Briefing held Feb. 5, 2010, at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center 
at which senior managers from NASA and several international partners spoke about a new era of 
scientific research on the orbiting complex once its construction phase is complete.

The briefing was held in advance of the scheduled liftoff of space shuttle Endeavour 
from Kennedy’s Launch Pad 39A at 4:39 a.m. EST Sunday, Feb. 7.

(Includes B-roll of ISS’s international crew conducting and/or tending to various science 
and research experiments aboard the station.)

ITEM 2 - HUBBLE IMAGES PLUTO AS A DYNAMICALLY CHANGING WORLD – STSci (REPLAY)

NASA's Hubble Space Telescope captures the most detailed images ever taken 
of the dwarf planet Pluto.  This distant resident of our solar system seems to 
be undergoing dramatic surface changes.  Comparing images taken by the space 
observatory over the course of a decade, the northern polar region has gotten 
brighter while the southern hemisphere darkened.

ITEM 3 - AFRICAN AMERICAN HISTORY MONTH PROFILE:  DR. MAE JEMISON, FIRST AFRICAN AMERICAN WOMAN IN SPACE –JSC (REPLAY)

Dr. Mae Jemison blasted into orbit aboard Space Shuttle Endeavour on September 12, 1992, becoming 
the first African-American woman m in space.  She was working as a general practitioner in 
Los Angeles, California when NASA selected her, and 14 others, for astronaut training, and 
she completed training as a mission specialist in 1988.

Mae Jemison was born in Decatur, Alabama on October 17, 1956, the youngest of three, and grew up in Chicago.  
At age 16, she entered Stanford University, and graduated in 1977 with degrees in both chemical engineering, 
and Afro-American studies. In 1981, she received a Doctor of Medicine degree from Cornell University in 1981. 
Jemison speaks four languages; Russian, Japanese, English and Swahili.

Dr. Jemison resigned from NASA in 1993.  Her honors and awards include: induction into the 
National Women's Hall of Fame, the National Medical Associations Hall of Fame, and the 
Johnson Publications Black Achievement Trailblazers Award.

Cut (1) TRT - 00:14 - Julie Robinson, NASA ISS Program Scientist
“The possibility and proposal for an expanded budget for full utilization for the 
space station means that scientists can do the research, and also the technology 
development that will fulfill the complete potential of the space station”. 


Cut (1) TRT – 00:22 - Robert Ferl, University of Florida, Gainesville 
 “What we are doing now is understanding keen and important fundamental biological 
principles that can only be studied when you leave the surface of the Earth.  What 
happens to terrestrial biology when it’s no longer on Earth?   What are the limits 
of terrestrial biology; how far can terrestrial life explore? “
